7.3 Setting up sound
Hint: If the HDMI Output is set to ‘Auto’, the media player will automatically use the
correct settings. When using the ‘Auto’ function, there is no need for manual settings.
7.3.1 If connected directly to your television:
1. Use the navigation buttons to go to ‘Setup’ and press the ‘OK’ button.
2. Select ‘Audio’.
3. The first option displayed is the ‘Preferred audio language’ here you can set what
audio language the EM7480/EM7485 should start to use (if available).
4. If the media player will be used mainly during night-time, the ‘Night Mode’ can be
set to ‘ON’ or ‘Auto’. When set to ‘On’, low-level audio content such as dialog will
be increased making it easier to hear at low volume levels. When set to ‘Auto’, the
intensity of higher-level audio content will also be reduced.
5. Make sure the ‘HDMI Output’ is set to ‘LPCM’ and press the ‘OK’ button.
6. Select ‘Surround Sound’ and press the ‘OK’ button. Select ‘undefined’, ‘5.1 CH’
and press the ‘OK’ button.
7. The last item is ‘Lip Sync’. Usually, ‘AUTO’ is the default setting and is the
recommended setting. Only set the ‘Lip Sync’ option if you experience delay in
audio playback. The maximum setting for lip sync is 500.
7.3.2 If connected to a HDMI audio receiver:
Refer to the manual of your HDMI receiver to make sure which codecs are supported.
The steps shown are default settings and are normally useable for a HDMI receiver.
1. Use the navigation buttons to go to ‘Setup’ and press the ‘OK’ button.
2. Select ‘Audio’.
3. The first option displayed is the ‘Preferred audio language’ here you can set what
audio language the EM7480/EM7485 should start to use (if available).
4. If the media player will be used mainly during night-time, the ‘Night Mode’ can be
set to ‘ON’ or ‘Auto’. When set to ‘On’, low-level audio content such as dialog will
be increased making it easier to hear at low volume levels. When set to ‘Auto’, the
intensity of higher-level audio content will also be reduced.
5. Set ‘HDMI Output’ to ‘RAW’ and press the ‘OK’ button.
6. Select ‘Surround Sound’ and press the ‘OK’ button. If your HDMI receiver supports
‘Dolby True HD’, select ‘HD Audio’. If your HDMI receiver does not support ‘Dolby
True HD’, select ‘5.1 CH’ or ‘Undefined’.
7. The last item is ‘Lip Sync’. Usually, ‘AUTO’ is the default setting and is the
recommended setting. Only set the ‘Lip Sync’ option if you experience delay in
audio playback. The maximum setting for lip sync is 500. However, most HDMI
receivers also have a ‘Lip Sync’ option. It is advisable to use the lip sync option on
the receiver, since most receivers are able to delay and speed up the sound.
